The latest Sports Retort presents the only NFL season preview podcast that positions Cleveland’s Paul Kruger as the key to everything. (We know, we know, he’s actually really good.) The Journal’s Kevin Clark joins us to break down why he counts the Browns among the teams he thinks will surprise people. He also can’t resist baiting the University of Florida for being “afraid” of his beloved University of Miami.

Plus: We mourn the Michigan-Notre Dame rivalry as the Irish make their last appearance in Ann Arbor for the foreseeable future. Geoff Foster makes a guarantee involving Jets quarterback Geno Smith and his first interception as a pro. We wonder who would pay to watch Jason Biggs play tennis. And we feast on picks in the first weekend that the NFL and college football are both in full swing.
